Spring 2011 NY Fashion week - Michael Bastian

The all American designer Michael Bastian adopted scuba diving as the Inspiration for spring his 2011 collection. At first i didn't think it sounded so promising until i saw the end result and for the most part i liked what I've seen. Yes there were some swimwear and diving pieces but for the most part the collection offers any American man who is a fan of the modern preppy style (which was a big theme all around this season) lots of good pieces for his spring wardrobe, especially the jackets and suits that looked tailored but effortless to wear. It is clearly once again that Michael knows what his customer is looking for and he does a great job offering it to him, and quite frankly i can see any guy no matter what his style is finding some pieces to work with it....even I who is not a fan of the preppy style would love to add some of these jackets to my wardrobe.
The only thing i would say is that he could have shown few less looks to make the presentation more focused...but hey, i can live with that. More Photos after the jump.

New York fashion week - Fall 2010-2011

New York fashion week proved once again its power as the capital of the sophisticated casual sportswear....... showing straight forward, commercial and wearable clothes!
The general inspiration board includes British tailoring influenced by 50's flair (someone said Mad man???), worn by a hipster from Williamsburg (Brooklyn), who caught in a moody day wearing Doc Martens-like lace-ups boots (with the pants tucked in), and sporting a pompadour hairstyle a la Morrissey. The color palette was mostly dark in basic shades of black, gray and earth tones...
Standout items included overcoats (were the highlights of almost every designer) and vests.
